This week’s intern class, we went on another field trip to the ECC building. ECC is responsible for maintaining the networks such as Wolfie-Net, sparky, HBO etc. The place is highly protective because any damage/intrusion to the place can result in seriously damage on the school internet. Behzad, one of the staff member in ECC, took us around the place. He showed us the machines that are responsible for on-campus phone services, multiple access point devices that allow students to use Wifi without disconnecting from the network. I believe in order to help our users, it is especially for us to understand how to service we provide work.
As the semester coming to a close, my mentors believed that I have learned enough information to act as a Senior Consultant. Therefore, I took over and acted as the Senior Consultant during my shadowing hours. Greater power comes with greater responsibility. Being a Senior Consultant means that you should to be able to answer any questions from the users as well as the regular consultants. It is important for us to serve as the role model for the other consultants to look up to. I think I have learned enough from the internship throughout this semester to carry on the responsibility I am assigned to.
Next week is final presentation, best of luck to those presenting!!
